"DISH is the only hospitality recruitment agency worth using, Eddy is a true professional and a genuine industry leader within both hospitality and recruitment. Couldn’t recommend more highly."
"I heard about Dish's referral scheme though Eddy I had a friend Adrian who was looking for a more permanent job and better pay so I referred him to Eddy the whole process took 8 weeks to get the vouchers which was a pleasant surprise just in time for Xmas! Eddy is great at his job and a real asset to Dish hospitality recruitment. I definitely recommend that people promote this scheme as it's good to get something back!"
